"Let me guess you want the usual" I smile brightly as I nod my head.
"I can't help that I'm addicted to the pumpkin spice frappuccino" I said to Cykeem as he fix it. He knows when I come here that's what all I get and maybe a muffin every now and then.
"What you gonna do when we don't have it no more".
"I'll just find another Starbucks around here".
"You can't do that, I'm your friend".
"I'm kidding, catch you later" I grab my frapp making my way out the door heading to class.
I glance at the time to see I made it just in time before class began.
"There goes the weird girl".
"Why she dress like that".
I continue to ignore the comments that was begin thrown at me. See about me I'm more of a cheerful person, I'm always happy. I don't let nothing or nobody bring me down.
I always wonder why my mom didn't name me Joy instead of Julye. Apparently she name me Julye cause I was born in July, the only difference is that I have a 'e' at the end of mines.
"Attention everyone, I need you all to get into a group for this project I got for you to do".
I watch as many got into groups of the people they wanted to be with. I rather work alone that way I can get everything I need finish and on time.
"Julye go join Candice group, this project isn't easy to work alone".
"Mr. Banks, we already have enough students" Candice said.
They only had three people meaning it could have one more person.
I took my seat and listen to Mr. Banks explain the project while Candice and her friends talk amongst themselves.
"So do you know what to do since you're so smart" Candice ask.
"Yeah, its easy really. Each of you should pick something to do like whose gonna write, read, and etc".
"Oh no you see you're going to do the work for us, that way we all get credit".
"You expect me to do all the work by myself"?
"See you smarter than you look" her friends began to laugh at what Candice had said.
*****
"Here I got you a drink" some guy come handed me a cup.
I wasn't stupid by long shot, never take a drink from someone that you don't know. I held the cup and pour it out on the floor.
"Aye why you peeing on me" well so I thought I poured it on the floor. I end up spilling it on a guy who was drunk.
I end up going to this little party to check it out. I don't have no type of friends so why be here.
"I seen what you did" I heard a deep voice said from behind me. I turn around to be face with Damon, the guy I had a crush on every since freshman in college.
"Oh you talking about pouring that drink on that guy" I laugh a little.
He smirk at me "Yeah, let me get you a drink. You can watch me make it, follow me" I was right behind him going into the kitchen watching him fix my drink.
I still wasn't going to drink it.
After Damon fix my drink, we start talking. He was telling me about how I should come to one of his frat parties he be throwing.
It wasn't before long until Candice came over to ruin things.
"Why you talking to her"? She glare at me before wrapping her arms around Damon body.
"Candice chill" he move away from her leaving us alone.
"You better stay away from him or else" she step towards me.
"Look I don't want any trouble".
"It won't be if you do what I say" she bump against my shoulder causing me to bump into someone else.
I knew it was time for me to go before things got ugly. I was trying to push through the crowd until I felt a tug at my arm.
It was Damon.
"Leaving already".
"Yeah, I'm not trying to cause any problems between Candice and you".
"Don't worry about her, she's not my girlfriend. Please stay for a little bit".
"Okay only for a minute".
"Tell me about you".
Before I could speak a girl came up to me. "Hey June right? Whatever come hang with my girls, Damon your friend Kaman wants you" the girl grab my hand leading me out towards the patio doors.
There stood Candice and her three little followers. The girl who brought me here was standing by the patio door that was close.
What's going on? I thought to myself.
"Can I help you with something"? I ask her.
"I thought I told you to stay away from Damon" she was now close to my face.
"Cand-" I was cut off to a punch to my face. Next thing I see Candice charging at me, I start fighting back but only to get held down by the other girls.
I was literally getting jump by these girls. According to the music that was thumping loud, no one couldn't hear what was going on.
"Take her clothes off" I heard Candice say. My clothes was taking off leaving me in just my bra and panties.
The two girls pull my body up pulling me over towards the balcony rail.
"STOP!!! PLEASE!!! DON'T DO THIS"!!! They held me upside down from my feet.
By then people was coming out to see what was going on. You would think somebody would help me.
Instead flashing was all I was seeing, people snapping pictures or recoding. I was crying constantly.
"Next time you would listen to me, drop that ugly rat".
They let me go and down I went into some sticky bushes. Pain was shooting through me, I cried out in a painful cry.
Luckily I'm still alive, I got myself out the bush walking back to my apartment. Tears was just rolling down my face, what did I do to deserve this.
I always been good to people even when they did me wrong. My mom I always taught me to treat people with kindness even if they treat me wrong.
Finally I made it home, getting in the shower to wash away the dried up blood that was on me.
